He is a very good player, he just is not a player who will score many goal. We need now to buy some stronger player, somebody like Freddy Guarin, i hear spurs are looking at him and paulinho.
RE: Liverpool FC - Joey 27 - 20-06-2013 03:48
liverpool should try and sign Soldado or Negredo both of them got 30 goals last season, both are at their peak
RE: Liverpool FC - Fernandez Esperenda - 20-06-2013 11:16
I think Jackson Martinez would be better for us.

Word is Mkhitaryan is flying in for his medical this weekend.
Might let myself get excited about this now. Watched hours of video on this lad over the past month. Looks fantastic.
Massive statement if we sign him.
Read this on him few days ago...
At the end of the 2011/12 season Henrik Mkhitaryan told the Ukrainian press that they had just witnessed his best season as a professional footballer.
Shakhtar Donetsk had once again seen off the perpetually insufficient challenge of Dynamo Kyiv and the Armenian international had caressed, dinked and brushed his way to fourteen goals.
A year later Mkhitaryan ended the 2012/13 season with thirty goals in all competitions, a league and cup double, and the longing glances of much of Europe’s footballing elite. Not forgetting those caresses, dinks and brushes.
Now, aged twenty-four, and in position as one of Europe’s brightest talents, the midfielder is surrounded by a barrage of conflicting reports, each with their own sprinkling of Mkhitaryan ‘quotes’ to support.
What does seem clear, despite jostling with PR-driven ‘will he, won’t he’ that most of us got over post Cole-Gallas, is that the time is ripe for a move, both in terms of career progression and his exquisite ability.
A midfielder he may be, with the player himself recently asserting that he’s ‘not a forward’, the three-time Armenian player of the year most definitely has a large quantity of the proverbial ‘
Stealthily shadowing the main striker in Shakhtar’s fluid 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 formation the midfielder fuses a combination of excellent vision, a speedy nip around the surface and the oh so Lampard-like ability to appear, poised, in-and-around the penalty area as the ball drops. Differences with Lampard abound, though, with Mkhitaryan able to slot into the false nine position so adored by today’s Borussia Dortmund-loving hipsters.
This footballing talent has, as his history suggests, followed a steadily linear progression from excelling as a seventeen year-old at FC Pyunik in Armenia.
Progress, it seems, has been a byword for Mkhitaryan’s career.
A debut season in 2006, an establishment in the Pyunik first team in 2007 and the double prize of top scorer and Armenian player of the year in 2009. The narrative, though, doesn’t end there, with a move to Ukraine and Metalurg Donetsk in 2009, being named the club’s youngest ever captain in 2010 and then, shortly into the 2010/11 season, moving across Donetsk to Shakhtar for €7.5 million.
The development at Shakhtar followed the now characteristic path, culminating in this season and goals (26) in 83.9% of his league games (31).
That rather linear path, seemingly destined to end with a move to Western Europe this summer, hits one jagged spot with the pleasant tale of four months spent training with Sao Paulo in Brazil in 2003. The beach-based trip encompassed the second time that Mkhitaryan had spent significant time away from Armenia, moving to France a year after his birth as his father, also a footballer, signed for French lower-tier side Valence.
The steady and progressive footballing strides taken by Mkhitaryan are offered in stark contrast to the debilitating blow dealt by the death of his father, aged thirty-three, due to a brain tumour in 1996, resulting in a move back to Yerevan.
The twenty-four year-old, multi-lingual and multi-talented, evidences the maturity of a man well experienced and travelled, both in life and in football. Whichever team benefits from his next travels, Liverpool or otherwise, will have captured a player with the potential to sit at football’s very top table.
Mkhitaryan, though, always one for progression and yearly development refuses to be drawn on his dream move, intimating that as a child he wasn’t too fond of Barcelona or Bayern Munich as “with age, tastes change. And there are no reasons to name just one thing that brings you joy”.
RE: Liverpool FC - The Truth - 20-06-2013 19:19
I'm not allowing myself to get exited about any transfers until pen is put to paper,there's so many conflicting reports regarding these deals.
Allegedly Aspas has to fork out £4mil out of his own pocket for the Liverpool deal to go ahead? And according to Mkhitaryan's club Shakhtar,there's been no contact with Liverpool?and the Atsu deal seems to have hit a snag?
I just hope these deals can be done,but excitement comes when their signed sealed delivered.
RE: Liverpool FC - mitchell - 20-06-2013 19:47
I've got to be honest & say I've never heard of or seen him play, I know on these occasions when this type of name pops up some come out with "Oh I remember seeing him play a few times in the Champions League & he impressed me", I always think that's bollocks, how many people given Sky Sports choice of 6 or 8 whatever it is live games chose to watch Shakhtar Donetsk? being honest I've done it once & can't even remember who they played, I only chose to watch them due to the other game involving I think Man Utd.
Now the way I judge a player of this obscurity is to see what teams are linked with him, yeah this doesn't give a certain say on his talents but it give you some form of preliminary view. I think I've seen him linked with Real Madrid on the one occasion but won't be reading anything into that at all. Armenia isn't by any stretch of the imagination a footballing powerhouse of the twelfth degree let alone the first, yeah there was George Weah of Liberia but thats about it.
My point being, can he really be a world beater especially a £22m world beater? groundnpound's post makes him sound like a possibility but the guy who wrote it is supposed to make him sound that way.
I'm not one for watching Youtube clips of any player as he will only be a good player for Liverpool if he can perform in the Premier League & no internet video has him doing that..... Yet.
Fair play to all who are Youtube watchers but it can be a false dawn in these circumstances. The Premier League can be a footballing graveyard for goal machines. Mateja Kežman & Dirk Kuyt both shashed goals in in Holland but never really managed it in the Premier League, then there's Andriy Shevchenko & I'm sure a few more.
RE: Liverpool FC - groundnpound - 20-06-2013 20:35
Quite negative there old friend.
You can never tell until a player gets the shirt on and gets going, of course, but this lad will perform in the premier league, bet your bottom dollar. He won't just perform, he'll shine for me.
Ask Phoenix or Admin or any Chelsea fan about the quality of Mkhitaryan, he played against Chelsea twice last season.
I'd never knock YouTube Mitchell, yeah it can be ridiculous at times but you can find some excellent compilations and stats vids of players on it. There's plenty scouting teams, coaches, managers having a look on there for glimpses of players they've been recommended. More so in the lower leagues, I've heard managers on radio confessing to using it.
The last player I went on YouTube to watch was a Brazilian kid called Coutinho. What I saw was the most unbelievably skillful little magician I've ever set eyes on. People said if he could do what he's doing in them vids he'll be dynamite and he has been. He's a world beater in my eyes and only cost us £8m. He'll set the league alight next season.
I understand your scepticism but I urge you to have a good look at Mkhitaryan on YouTube. Some players can play in any team, in any league in the world. The special players.
The thought of Gerrard, Coutinho, Mkhitaryan and Lucas as our midfield has got my juices flowing, must say mate.
RE: Liverpool FC - groundnpound - 20-06-2013 21:00
Pepe's staying put by the sound of it. Mignolet coming could be great for him, keep him on his toes. Get him back to his very best. He's never had a serious threat to his position at Liverpool. Quality news!
His interview today...
"My situation is clear. I have a three-year contract with Liverpool, although in football you can never tell," he told Spanish radio station Onda Cero.
"I'm very happy and satisfied at Liverpool, I feel valued and respected. Logically, if there was a chance to improve and go to a bigger club it would be a good opportunity, although there are few clubs bigger than Liverpool."
Reina added: "In principle my plan is to continue with Liverpool.
Upon being asked while on duty with Spain at the Confederations Cup if his time at Anfield had come to an end, he responded: "I don't think so. Nor do I think that is a possibility.
"I have three years left on my contract and I want to fulfil that and even go further.
"The best option for my family is for me to stick with Liverpool."
